Game Music Connect recently announced the dates for its third annual symposium this year, which will be held in Southbank Centre, London, on September 15, in The Purcell Room. The game music industry event, which has previously featured composers from Bioshock‘s Garry Shyman to Assassin’s Creed‘s Jesper Kyd to Destiny‘s Marty O’Donnell, began in 2013 when game and tv composer James Hannigan teamed up with composer and audio director John Broomhall. They created a venue in which newcomer and veteran composers alike could host, and participate in, and observe round-table discussions, panels, demonstrations, and interviews with variety of game music composers.

So far, the only announced session is “To Be Or Not To Be: Music for VR,” which will feature a discussion on roles of sound versus music in games, suggesting methods of putting composers and sound designers more in touch with each other for maximizing the audio experience of games. More information on Game Music Connect as well as updates and available ticket prices can be found on their official website; early bird tickets will be on sale from now until the end of May at £99.00.

Emily McMillan A native and lifelong Texan, I currently work in software education while contributing news, reviews, and interviews to VGMO on the side. I love the feeling that comes with the discovery of a brand new soundtrack, and always look forward to the next rekindling of that excitement. Outside of VGMO, I enjoy playing piano, listening to classical music and film scores, and trying to go unnoticed in any stealth RPG I can find.
